Background: Data on Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) use in patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are limited. Furthermore, Absorb studies including STEMI patients lacked a prespecified implantation technique to optimize BVS deployment. This study examines the 5-year outcomes of BVS in STEMI patients using an optimized implantation strategy and the impact of prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT).

The optimal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to treat them is unknown. We aim to clarify the effect of different CPAP levels on lung aeration and gas exchange in patients with RDS and TTN.

- Mugil cephalus is important for aquaculture but identifying male and female fish before they mature is challenging due to a lack of visible sex differences.
- Researchers have found a way to identify genetic sex through mutations in a specific gene without needing costly DNA sequencing, enabling quicker sorting of sexes.
- The new method shows high accuracy in distinguishing males from females, which could lead to better management and production of mono-sex populations in aquaculture.
Objective: Scanty data are available about neonatal systemic vascular resistances (SVR). We aim to provide reference values and nomograms for neonatal SVR.
Design: Multicenter, cross-sectional,descriptive study performed in France and Italy.
